Zhang Ren's eyes were full of coldness. Compared with Li Zhenjun's betrayal of the court, he hated Ji Gang's betrayal more.
They once fought together and worked together to overthrow the Nine Sects and the Dark Lord, although at that time Ji Gang was more coerced by Zhang Ren.
But it is also because of this that Ji Gang has gradually become the new dark master who rules the underworld forces in Jinling City from a small gangster who opened a casino in Jinling City. At the same time, he also joined the Jinyi Guards, and even Ji Gang took a commission from Jinling City's lottery business.
It can be said that everything Ji Gang has now was given by Zhang Ren. But at this moment, Zhang Ren didn't understand why Ji Gang betrayed him.
Although his heart was full of confusion and his chest was full of anger, Zhang Ren still resisted the urge to kill and did not take action.
Now the top priority is to promote peace talks between the imperial court and the Yan army, and other grievances must be put aside. Even now, Zhang Ren had to give up the bodies of Xiao Jin and Mu Zhiyong.
He turned around, exerted force on his feet, and jumped under the city wall. But how could Li Zhenjun let him get what he wanted?
The chains surged and wrapped directly around his legs. Zhang Ren was dragged back alive like this. He looked at the situation below the city and saw that the imperial troops and the Yan army were getting closer and closer. Moreover, he also saw a large banner in the military formation that read "Yanshan Wei Zhang". This flag belonged to Zhang Yu. He saw Zhang Yu rushing to the front of the team like a sharp knife, already very close to the imperial army.
Zhang Ren knew that there was not much time left for him. As soon as he landed on the city wall, he immediately drew out his Xiuchun knife and cut off the iron chain wrapped around his ankle.
But Li Zhenjun ordered a chain to come at this moment. Zhang Ren raised his sword and the iron chain became entangled with the Xiuchun sword.
Ji Gang, who was on the side, looked towards the city, and then smiled sinisterly and said: "The Governor is going to negotiate?
Isn't it bad to leave in such a hurry? Zhang Ren gritted his teeth with hatred, and finally couldn't help but asked: "Why?"
Ji Gang had a sly look on his face, no longer as cautious as before, "Why? Of course it's for yourself."
"For yourself?" Zhang Ren was puzzled and asked: "You are already the secret master of Jinling City, what else are you dissatisfied with?"
Ji Gang raised his eyebrows and said: "What about the Dark Lord? Some people say that the Dark Lord is the emperor of the night in Jinling City. He can take over the position of the Dark Lord himself and has never done anything illegal. Even as the Dark Lord, I still have to be cautious. The dark master said it nicely, but in the final analysis, he is just a bug that cannot see the light. I also want to walk into the sunshine. Now I already have the identity of Jin Yiwei. As long as I become the Jin Yiwei's Commander, you can really do whatever you want from now on, and do whatever you want!
"Some people enjoy the feeling that rights bring, but some people regard rights as dung, just like Zhang Ren. If it hadn't been for the Jingnan Campaign, he wouldn't be bossing around.
He gritted his teeth and said, "You should know that I have no pursuit of power. If you just want to move up, why don't you tell me?
As long as you don't do anything out of the ordinary, with my operation and your status as the secret master, it's not difficult to become the commander of the Imperial Guard.
Ji Gang shook his head slightly and said, "Who can't speak up? You really didn't pursue rights before, but who can speak well now?"
People change. It's like I have never stood on a high place before, so I thought it would be good to be a gangster and open a gambling house. But when I stood on a high place and saw a different scenery, I never felt like it again. I don’t want to go down anymore, I just want to walk up and see a different scenery.
Ji Gang said, and took a few steps towards Zhang Ren. He came to Zhang Ren and continued: "So, how do I know if you are greedy for power now?"
Furthermore, even if you don't want to be the commander yourself, His Majesty has a very close friendship with you, so in recent years, His Majesty would rather leave the position of Commander of the Imperial Guard empty than to keep it for you.
Zhang Ren was extremely angry and asked, "Just for the position of Commander-in-Chief, you can betray the imperial court?"
You can just watch those people in the city lose their lives in vain? As long as the negotiation is successful, they shouldn't be fighting here!
Ji Gang smiled slightly, "Who said I betrayed the imperial court?" Zhang Ren frowned, "Why did you kill your colleagues if you didn't betray the imperial court?"
Why did you stop the peace talks if you didn't betray the imperial court? "The smile on Ji Gang's face was full of contempt, "It's not because of you, the governor. After Geng Bingwen was defeated, I smelled an opportunity. I used my identity as a Jin Yiwei to send a lot of information to the Yan army. Where is the Caobang? Also cooperating intentionally or unintentionally, oh, the governor doesn’t know yet, the reason why Li Jinglong was defeated was precisely because I sent intelligence to the Yan army, and the masters of the Cao Gang also sent Li Jinglong’s commander in the formation. The flag was manipulated, and Li Jinglong's handsome flag was broken, and the 600,000-strong army was wiped out.
"Although it is impossible for 600,000 people to die in a battle, there are definitely not a few who die. So many lives were lost just because of selfish interests, which made Zhang Ren furious.
Seeing Zhang Ren's angry look, Li Gang had a look of pride on his face, "Actually, no matter whether King Yan takes over the world in the end or His Majesty continues to sit in that position, I will always be the winner. If Yan Jun wins, because I gave him My intelligence will also become the most trusted person by the King of Yan, and it will not be a big deal for me to be rich and well-paid. If the imperial court wins, then I will be a spy who broke into the Yan army, and the imperial court will definitely reward me.
Therefore, how can the Yan army and the imperial court negotiate peace? It's better to keep fighting. The more intense the fighting between the two parties is, the greater my contribution will be.
Lord Governor, in order to fulfill me, please die here. Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I want to tell the Governor. Gang Leader Li and I intercepted the Thousand-Faced Man together, but we never wanted him to escape.
"What a good plan. Who would have thought that an ordinary gangster in Jinling City would now plan such a big drama for his own power. If it weren't for Ji Gang and the Cao Gang's plan, I'm afraid the Battle of Jingnan would have ended long ago. .
Zhang Ren no longer knew what to say. He only felt a surge of anger in his chest. Especially when he thought of Zeng Qingda, the Thousand-Faced Man, he felt even more filled with hatred.
He didn't say anything more, but raised his leg and kicked Ji Gang in the abdomen, venting his anger to his heart's content.
At such a close distance, Ji Gang had no time to dodge and was kicked hard by Zhang Ren. Although Ji Gang had practiced martial arts diligently over the years, in the end his time was shorter and his disciples were weaker. Faced with Zhang Ren's kick, he vomited blood and flew away.
When he landed, he didn't scream in pain. Instead, he raised his head and laughed. His teeth were mixed with blood, and his smile looked extremely scary.
"Okay! Good kick! I was still indebted to you, but now that I'm kicked by you, I've returned all my kindness to you.
"Compared with what Zhang Ren gave Ji Gang, this kick was still too light, but who can say the best about favors?
Anyway, Ji Gang felt that enough was enough. At this time, the Yan army outside the city and the imperial soldiers and horses finally fought.
The two parties were entangled together, and the sounds of fighting, shouting, and screams were endless. As long as he rushes over now, it should still be too late.
Zhang Ren no longer held back, and his inner energy surged out, directly shattering Li Zhenjun's chains. Li Zhenjun reacted quickly. He exerted force on his feet, picked up the nine-hole ring-headed sword and came to Zhang Ren.
He slashed down with his knife, Zhang Ren raised his knife to block, and the two knives collided, creating bursts of sparks. If we only compare strength, Li Zhenjun is far superior to Zhang Ren.
But Zhang Ren had been practicing martial arts in Wudang Mountain in the past few years. He no longer chose to confront Li Zhenjun head-on. Instead, he took half a step back and tilted the blade slightly, taking away the power from Li Zhenjun's sword.
Li Zhenjun raised his sword to fight again, but Zhang Ren used it as a sword, and with a twist of his wrist, he again removed the power from Li Zhenjun's sword.
This hand is Wudang's Tai Chi Sword. Li Zhenjun was also secretly frightened. He had heard about Wudang Mountain's Kung Fu before, but this was the first time he saw it. In the past, he would always sneer at people who boasted about Wudang's Kung Fu.
He has been practicing chain and sword skills since he was a child, both of which are open and closed. When facing enemies, what he focuses on is nothing more than speed, ruthlessness, accuracy and courage.
But today, Li Zhenjun had to face up to the martial arts of the Wudang Sect. Every time he swung his sword, he felt like it hit cotton, and it was easily removed before he even used his strength to the extreme.
This made him a little annoyed. He was the leader of the Cao Gang, and he was known as an iron chain blocking the rivers and rivers. When had he ever felt so aggrieved in a fight?
With this thought, the long knife in Li Zhenjun's hand couldn't help but become a little faster, and the strength also increased accordingly.
When his rhythm changed, Zhang Ren's rhythm also changed. In a hurry, Li Zhenjun actually showed a flaw. Although the flaw was extremely small, it was still caught by Zhang Ren. He took the opportunity to fly away the nine-hole ring-shaped sword in Li Zhenjun's hand.
Zhang Ren stepped forward, preparing to deal with Li Zhenjun first. At this time Ji Gang also arrived with a knife and fought with Zhang Ren.
Li Zhenjun also took this opportunity to roll around on the ground twice and picked up his weapon again.
He didn't stay too long and joined the battle group again. With Zhang Ren's current martial arts, he can still win even if he faces Li Zhenjun and Ji Gang at the same time.
Just when Zhang Ren thought this, he felt a chill in his lower back. He looked down and saw that a long sword had passed through his body from behind.
Zhang Ren turned around and realized that there was someone behind him. This man looks like a madman, and he is Bai Hua Can Gao Wen Tai.
Zhang Ren asked indifferently: "Weren't you being escorted to the government?" Gao Wentai was still crazy, but he didn't reply.
Ji Gang on the side said: "I am also a Jin Yiwei after all. Isn't it easy to get people out of the prison in Dongchang City?
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Gaowen Terrace is a gift I prepared for the Governor. Does the Governor still like it?
"Gao Wentai behind Zhang Ren finally spoke, "Zhang Ren! I did do the business of picking flowers and hurt many women. It's understandable that you sent me to prison, but you went to my descendants and asked me to I hate that I have become neither male nor female!
I will kill you today! ” (After reading this, remember to bookmark it for next time reading!)
